Not even halfway into its premiere season, the reality show Ace of Cakes has been picked up by the Food Network for a second season based on its impressive ratings and appeal of its star, Baltimore cake maker Duff Goldman.

The show, which is centered on Goldman's bakery, Charm City Cakes, has become one of the Food Network's top five shows and debuted last month to an audience of 1.7 million viewers. The cable channel has ordered 13 more episodes for a second season to begin in January.
